February 11-12, 2023 | NE / Mid-Atlantic Winter Storm Speculation

A fair number of GFS members show a bit of a comma head/cold conveyor belt type set up.  Verbatim, these scenarios might not have a ton of QPF, but it would probably be higher ratio stuff.  

   First wave looks like only northern NY/NE has a shot at frozen stuff.  Some variability with this second wave.

Now…3 in a row.

Got a funny feeling Lucy is getting ready to yank the Super Bowl snow football away from Charlie Brown soon.😂

Observation: Looks like the storm takes its time deeper into Sunday on this run.

😂 That’s what I’m thinking too.. but who knows. I’ll ride the wave for the moment. The models could decide to really taunt us and all agree on this solution just to suppress OTS in the last 36 hours.

Normally the Navgem being in this position would make sense for a coastal storm.  Part of the problem that Jay, I and others have mentioned is that we can't really figure out the biases anymore.  Seems weird the progressive Navgem is closing off that low over the SE but the Euro isn't.  The lack of storms to track and test biases over the last two years is not helping us.

On the other hand the 500mb chart has that low just rolling off the SE, which typically doesn't result in a storm coming up the coast very far.  Theres a zonal flow over the top that will keep it from coming up, unless that kink over WY or the shortwave on the MN/CAN border come into play.  There's also the particularly strong SER this year that could force the 500mb low further north, which I think is what the GFS is seeing.

This one is kind of looking like a lottery prize. Gotta have a whole lotta things line up just right and only a couple people gonna win. It's not far off from declaring me a winner at this stage so just looking for a couple minor enhancements but definitely in the ball park here in sw VA. Gonna piss off a lot of people no matter where this one hits though. Real narrow window.

A "venn diagram" storm perhaps. Where does the cold, moisture, and lift overlap?
